APPARATCHIK is the Caped Crusader of fandom, a puzzling and long-extinct herbivorous creature known only from intermittent metallic groans mixed with samples of its strangely knobbed and squamous skull -- after all, this is baseball we're talking about, not boxing. Little is known of the realm of the Euro-American soul, but scientists speculate that it looks a little like Clint Howard when young, or possibly Newt Gingrich. Apak was available for the usual, or you could have got Apparatchik for $3.00 for a 3 month supply, or a year's worth for $12.00 or a lifetime subscription for $19.73, or in exchange for peas with honor in our tum.
